    How Often do you Really Need to Clean your Pipe?

    Using the system pack to avoid charring the draft hole helps https://petersonpipenotes.org/166-charles-petersons-system-pipe-packing-method/ And just cleaning the reservoir with a pipe cleaner you can use paper towel but I find that always leaves small bits of paper in the reservoir. Besides...

    Finishing this bowl of 1792 flake breaking in this newly arrived today Heritage POTY #298/1100 👌🏻 This has a much larger weargap than my Terracotta does but it's a smooth draw and building moisture in the reservoir so I might not make any changes to er, time will tell.

    Nope. Graduated bore P Lip is a requirement to meet the System design that Charles Peterson patented. Otherwise it's just a reverse calabash. I would go further to say that without a chimney or "tubular extension" as it was described in the original patents, that sits in the reservoir below the...

    Toughest Pipe Smoking SOB in Movies.

    If you don't know, watch the Count Dankula Mad Lads episode on Sir Christopher Lee on youtube, when the James Bond character is loosely based off of you (Lee and Ian Flemming were related), you're a badass and one tough MOFO

    I've heard of it but I've never had it happen to me with any Pete I've ever owned, that isn't to say it isn't possible though just my personal experience.

    How Often do you Really Need to Clean your Pipe?

    I smoke Peterson System pipes 95% of the time and besides cleaning the reservoir out with a pipe cleaner immediately after smoking I've never really needed to do much else. A cleaner through the stem every 5th smoke or so and that's it. As for my meerschaums I just keep the bowl relatively cake...

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes
